Why I love the BBhugme Nursing Pillowđź’•
Hey everyone!
When I find a parent hack or product that is a game-changer in the mamahood, I have to share the love.
You know all those jokes and unsolicited advice people say when you’re pregnant? You know, the “Better sleep now. When the baby comes you’ll never sleep again!” And you look at them and wonder if they realize you’re growing a human inside of you that causes morning sickness, heartburn, takes up space, and makes sleep pretty darn difficult.
I really struggled to get sleep, let alone great sleep, when I was pregnant with my girls. Even if I slept, I was constantly woken from discomfort, the need to pee, or my partner jostling the bed. This meant my sleep wasn’t consolidated, which meant my brain couldn’t do its best work clearing my neural pathways of unwanted chemicals, building my immune system, and more. I craved that restorative sleep.
When I found out I was pregnant with my third, I knew something had to change. And ladies: I found the nursing pillow. I don’t even want to call it a nursing pillow, because it has been the perfect pregnancy pillow, travel pillow, and sleep friend.
Enter BBhugme.
Here is why I love the BBhugme Nursing Pillow and would recommend investing in it for yourself:
You can shape it into what you need for support. It is created by 3 chiropractor mamas (yes please! There is no better combo - people who have lived motherhood and are experts on what the body needs) who understand the importance of relaxing and sleeping during pregnancy. I used the nursing pillow as a pregnancy pillow, and loved it. I have been napping daily during this pregnancy.
It is made from all the good things. The pillow is hypoallergenic, was given a Class 1 certification by OEKO-TEX (one of the world's best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances), and uses sustainable materials. The cover is made from cotton and jersey spandex, and the pillow is filled with patented Biofoam beads (aka. heaven). Soooo comfy!
It has multiple uses. I am currently using my BBhugme Nursing Pillow as a pregnancy pillow, but it is the ideal height, support, and comfort for nursing babies, and you can use it for baby awake time too! Watch that your partner doesn’t try to steal it for their sleep lol.
It also comes with a reusable carry bag (perfect for the hospital because heck yes I’m bringing this pillow), the cover is machine-washable, and there are many lovely cover options for matching your nursery or home vibe.
All the love to humans everywhere who are making our lives more enjoyable by creating useful and beautiful products! I cannot wait to use this pillow with baby #3! Don’t just take my word for it, though - check it out for yourself at https://www.bbhugme.com/ or find them on Instagram at @bbhugme.
Sleep sweetly,
